smeagol's Introduction

smeagol

smeagol is this ugly dude who led some hobbits around, this is kinda the same thing. Except, like, instead of hiking mordor you're trying to write some open source code on a mac.

FWIW it was easier to just write bash for this at first. Over time I've enjoyed maintaining this with chef more than I think I would've enjoyed straight up shell.

What it does

Sets you up with homebrew
Installs git from homebrew, sets up ~/.gitconfig
Installs postgresql, mysql, redis, memcached and mongodb. They're all configured to run when you login.
Installs rvm and sets up 1.8.7 to be the default, self manages on 1.9.2 as well
Installs common ruby gems: rails 3, sinatra, fog, sqlite3, imagemagick, and all that bullshit
Installs a pretty sane ~/.irbrc
Installs a node.js development environment with npm
Installs a modern python environment with pip
Installs an erlang environment
Installs MacVim and sets up janus

This is what I run on my system, cinderella is a subset of that.

Disabling Services

Smeagol installs a gem called lunchy which makes it trivial to enable/disable the services that are installed by default.
